Anderson County’s Corrin Robinson scores the tying run in the state tournament semifinal against Louisville Male. While Male eventually won in extra innings, Anderson’s athletic success in recent years has been costly.

The past eight years have been the glory years for Anderson County High School athletics. Few would argue otherwise.

Beginning with the 2007-2008 school year, Anderson County teams have produced 21 district championships, 11 regional titles, a state football runner-up, 11 regional runners-up, final four appearances by the girls’ basketball and softball teams, and multiple individual state tournament or state meet appearances in sports such as track, tennis or wrestling, that have places for individual qualifiers.
